Chad and Mikey Talk 40 Year Acoustic Sounds Warner Record Series and Almost 40 Years Knowing Each Other

there are some guaranteed laughs too!

Acoustic Sounds today (January 15th, 2026) announced its new 40th Anniversary 45rpm Warner Records series so Chad Kassem and I Zoom called about it and about much, much more. We go back to the mid 1980s and had a lot to talk about generally, and specifically about the new series as well as the recent Atlantic 75th anniversary series.

We also talked about the upcoming October 16th weekend "Vinyl Summit" at Chad's Salina, Kansas headquarters, open to the public and featuring a who's who of the record production business as well as musicians who will perform at Blue Heaven Studios. You're sure to enjoy at least part if not all of the conversation. Lots of laughs too.
